Lord Of The Files One way to look at this novel is to see the battle that goes on between Jack and
Ralph as a battle that symbolizes two very different sides of human nature. In the
first part of your essay, identify what these two different sides are. Make sure to
include a discussion of such symbols as:

---the conch, the fire, getting rescued, building shelters, rules /
regulations for Ralph
--- painting faces, hunting , setting up a rival camp, hunting down,
killing his enemies, creating a dictatorship to symbolize Jack
